Portrait of a Voice Actorby ~PsuC

Fan Art / Digital Art / Painting & Airbrushing / Games

A digital sketch I made in 1 hour and 40 minutes. I’m surprised how this turned out considering it’s the first digital sketch I’ve ever done of a real person,... and Wheatley.

I suppose most people who’s a fan of Portal 2 would recognize this face right away (If my illustration of him is not too crappy, that is. XP )

He’s Stephen Merchant, the British comedian who’s the voice behind this loveable Core, Wheatley.
Also, If you've listened to Ricky Gervais' podcast, you'll know him as well. Karl Pilkington was the most hillarious one there, though.

(In my opinion anyway.)

I had this idea of them together in mind for a long time now (not a new idea, actually.) and wanted to try if I can make a bit of a caricature out of someone’s face, so yeah, here he is. Just don’t zoom too close or you’ll see how rough this work actually is.

Comments are most welcome!

Oh, and, I know it's not exactly a portrait, ...just a little reference to the game's achievement.

Another thing is that Wheatley's actually much bigger than this, but I wanted Steve to be able to hold him, so yeah.

I was searching Wheatley and this came up

Epic work

you got their good looks, that's for sure

~PsuC Jan 23, 2012 Student General Artist

I'm very happy to know that!

Not often my work surface enough to be seen when searching a popular character's name.
Thank you very much.

Now that's how Wheatley looks! Most of the robot AIs look better in human form when they look like their voice actors

~PsuC Jan 13, 2012 Student General Artist

Most people tend to portray human appearance of Wheatley as Stephen Merchant's. And I have to agree, especially if that voice actor is one of the funniest comedian and writer out there.

this is so cute X3 ...and he did an amazing job ...me and my boyfriend would just wait and wait for ages just to listen to more things he would say if we didn't do what Wheatley said immediatly....XDXD

~PsuC Oct 26, 2011 Student General Artist

Indeed he did! It's amazing how he can make a metal ball with just an eye so dynamic and hillarious, not to mention loveable. This might be the only game that I enjoy standing around and do nothing just to hear a character say something. xD
